Editor’s Diary: Nicole Lee Yeva Faux Fur Backpack

ArianneUpdated on June 29, 2018June 29, 2018

Dear Diary,

I think I have found THE CUTEST backback on this globe! The Nicole Lee Yeva Faux Fur Backpack! It’s got everything. Perfect adorable color, fur, ample space… and drumroll please… jewel encrusted rose detailing. Enough said!

Nicole Lee is well-known for bringing the fashion heat when it comes to purses, lunch bags (yes, you read that correctly even lunch bags that keep food warm or cold!); shoes as well as other couture accessories. However, this latest addition to the NL line is just killing the game.

A pink backpack fit for any princess or ultimate fashion girly-girl. Moreover, backpacks are great when traveling, going on day trips, hiking, sight-seeing or picnicking with friends. However, most of us want to differentiate from our school backpacks with something a little bit more voguish. The Nicole Lee Yeva Fur Backpack accomplishes this hands down with its cutesy design aesthetic.

Editor’s Diary: Nicole Lee Yeva Faux Fur Backpack

Nonetheless, for quite some time I have been rocking with the Nicole Lee label. I currently own three handbags from the brand which I love; not just because of their chic styles; but also the craftsmanship.

Some handbags over time just do not hold up well at all. I am constantly on the go and require bags to stand their ground and keep not only my effects; but at times what feels like half my life (LOL). I’m talking laptop, smartphone, camera, notepad, pens, iPad or whatever else I need for a meeting/shoot/etc.

I personally find that Nicole Lee’s bags are durable and come with the compartment space I desperately need at times. Furthermore, their prices are always reasonable. So then, I get an amazing well-made designer bag without having to take out a loan.

Therefore, do you like my pink backpack pick from Nicole Lee? It is available now on the NL website! Get yours for $95.

Well, that’s all for now Diary, Muah!

Love Always,

Arianne XOXO

Get Your Man Right: Jimmy Choo Man Blue Fragrance

Arianne June 18, 2018June 18, 2018

What’s one thing that can make a date even better? A great smelling man! Seriously, what’s better then leaning into your man’s neck and getting that tantalizing whiff that makes the hairs on your arm stand? For that reason alone we are nominating Jimmy Choo Man Blue, a bonafide must-have man scent.

Get Your Man Right: The Jimmy Choo Man Blue Fragrance

Why? Well the luxury label explains that it is, “An essential fragrance for any modern gent. Jimmy Choo Man Blue combines a woody, aromatic scent with black pepper, leather and grey amber. Ideal for the man on the move and perfect for day to night.”

Translation: Your dude can smell divine whether he is meeting you for a cup of coffee or a candlelight dinner. Without being anywhere near overpowering. This is an all day fragrance so he can spritz it on even after a workout.

It’s great for any guy who is a novice when it comes to scents because there’s no guesswork. Daytime or nighttime, any event or occasion it is just going to work.

Also, if your man fears fragrance because he is afraid of smelling like… er… you know, a woman (LOL). He can totally relax. There is nothing “girly” or “citrusy” nor remotely floral about this scent. It is 100% all man and brawn. OW!

Gift your man or just hint sweetly where your SO can pick up a JC bottle of goodness. It retails for $90 on the Jimmy Choo website; HOWEVER, we spied with our discount eyes Macy’s selling in store and online for $70. Happy shopping babes.
